I heard that you were drunk and mean
down at the dairy queen.
there's just enough of you in me,
for me to have this sympathy
and take it in stride.
I know I had mine,
and you were as kind,
I am told.
ain't it funny how we lose one day
and a lifetime slips away.
I'm looking back on us that way-
something I never thought I'd say.
I take it in stride.
I know I had mine,
it was good for a time,
I am told.
it was good for a time,
I am told.
the love you gave was not for free,
but the price was truly fair.
I never felt so glad to be
so well spent and so beyond repair.
I take it in stride.
at least you were mine,
if not for all time,
enough to hold.
or at least, enough for me to hold you.
now take good care that you are true-
you said you found it hard to do.
and find that bit of faith that sets you free
from having everything to prove.
and you take it in stride
and know you got mine,
and it's good for a lifetime or more.
I love you more and more.
hey I love you more and more.

I'm happy for you, CoJo, and while I'm not as "in to" these gals, I can hear the passion you talk about and probably would be right there with you if I listened harder to their music. Long Live RP!
I count myself blessed for digging these gals since "Rites of Passage." They continue to impress and inspire me. I love their passion!

Kind of makes you want to stop at the DQ on the way home from work and grab a Buster Bar or Blizzard
Cool. This is on the concert DVD that comes with the album.

Amy and Emily doing what they do so well,
Lovely harmonies and melody. I'll definitely iPod this one. Sweet. Life affirming.
I lost my virginity while working at a Dairy Queen one summer long ago— I was 16 years old, and my manager was 23... she was an "older woman", and I was thrilled... she told me I looked just like a young Elvis Presley...
this song makes me feel all warm inside... love this live version...
The intro sounds like they are going to cover that Jason Mraz song...
marvelous... love it...
Now take good care that you are true— you said you found it hard to do
And find that bit of faith that sets you free from having everything to prove
Everybody in my church loves this song...
this song is gorgeous... love it soooo much!!!!
nice little song....
